This is the Log of the Sailing Vessel Lealea, recounting our cruising life; voyaging, sailing and living aboard a small boat. We seek to avoid the crowds, complication and stress of life as we have known it in the business world. City society is just not for us. Join us as we search for peace, health and the simple joy of living with nature rather than trying to bend her to our will.

Our goal is to challenge ourselves and our vessel and by so doing learn and grow; to share our experiences and the lessons learned through our videos and written logs and to promote small boat cruising in general and the American Vega Association in particular.

For more insight into the cruising life or to simply give advice please visit our blog found in The Logbook or you can also follow and comment with us on Facebook or Google+.

To see all our videos in chronological order please visit our YouTube channeland click Playlists .Be sure to subscribe while there in order to receive updates about our latest videos.

We created Lealea's Book Locker to provide a list of recommended reading books for sailors or those dreaming to be. We consider many of these books to be a "must read" for any prospective boat owner or cruiser.
